At What Point...

do we seriously start worrying about the right-wing nuttery that feels like it is gaining steam? When Republican members of Congress like Michelle Bachmann say things like she did yesterday, is it odd to find out that t-shirts like the ones pictured below are hot items?





I certainly remember hearing a lot of the crazier pronouncements by this crowd during the Clinton years, but I wasn't really engaged enough to be able to compare it to now. This feels, to me, more dangerous. More malevolent. More likely that something really bad could happen. Is that an overreaction? I hope so.

i think it is scarier, partly because conservative talk radio is more prevalent and powerful than it was during clinton. but again, i was also less aware in those days.

oh, and nice work, anonymous. i believe they should come free with your yearly subscription to dumb-ass monthly. but do you really need more than 5 of the same shirt? perhaps so...
